Payette eyes school dress code

Payette is the latest Idaho school district considering a stricter student dress code, calling its new proposed policy "Dress for Success."
The Payette School Board is combing through the suggested policy, which bans jeans, requires shirts have collars and states students only wear red, black, white, gray or tan colored clothing. Payette County's current student dress code forbids "clothing with writing, printing, or a picture that is obscene, sexually suggestive, or that promotes the use of tobacco, alcohol, or illegal drugs/controlled substances." Hats and head apparel are also not allowed/George Prentice, Boise Weekly. More here.

Question: Have you ever gone to a school with a dress code? What did you think of it?
